But wait, there's more!

New project teaser

Those of you who read my blog looking for quilting posts have been very disappointed for the past couple of months. For that I sincerely apologize. I have been in some kind of major slump and haven’t been able to energize myself at the sewing machine. It’s making me crazy, too. I’m having a tug-of-war with my brain or something. I want to finish my UFOs, I want to start new ones but I can’t stay focused. Maybe I need some ADD medication or something.

Anyway, what you see above will not be a quilt, but it is something I actually thought I’d do over our staycation week. But I ran into a snag when I discovered the “one yard” of fabric the pattern calls for means exactly that, no less. I know better, but I only bought one yard and it shrunk to 35″ if I even got a full 36″ to begin with. And this pattern needs the full 36″. So I decided I could shorten one of the pattern pieces just a bit, enough to fit and still be ok. Yes, it’s butt-ugly fabric, but this is just a pattern tester anyway. I’m hoping to jazz it up with embellishments or something.
